[Many Races] [Supernatural Powers] [Ensemble Cast] [Precognition]
When Shen Mo stepped into the Psionic Academy, he had no idea he was standing on humanity’s last line of defense.
Earth was a colossal psionic mine slowly awakening. The energy field that erupted three hundred years ago had kept the myriad races from invading directly, like a protective shield, but it was also an hourglass running down with no way to turn back.
In the final years under the energy field’s protection, agents of the various races had already begun quietly infiltrating human society.
The elves were weaving networks of mental control through the art world; the blood clan was building “life banks” in the medical system; and the machine race was turning human cities into enormous energy converters… Humanity’s only deterrent was its Awakened, who possessed the forbidden power to “trade one life for an entire race.”
Shen Mo’s “future-prediction” ability let him see countless possible futures.
From chance encounters in the Academy corridors to life-or-death gambits at the conference table, every small choice could set off a butterfly effect.
When the countdown finally ends and the shield shatters, he will make the entire universe understand: humanity is no helpless lamb waiting for slaughter, but a player holding the button that can destroy everything.
“If the rules are destined to be broken, then before the old rules collapse, I’ll become the one who writes the new ones.”
